Mortality of populations is presented in numbers per thousand(per-mille ‰). In modern times the mortality rate, with medicines, proper health care amounts to 9.5 people per thousand per annum; 0.95 %. These figures vary depending on the source.
In the 1800 mortality was higher being in the region of 2.5% ( 25‰)
The Philippines has a high mortality rate (Knoema.com) of 3.72% (37.2‰). This was measured in 2020.
Of course the mortality is balanced with the birth rate in normal situations.
The Jews during WWII were deprived of reproductive rights with a high mortality rate due to physical conditions and lack of appropriate medical care; there were doctors but few pharmaceutical supplies to stave of problems such as high blood pressure, diabetes etc. (After Seegen noted in 1870 that roughly one quarter of his 140 diabetes patients were Jewish..link)
The mortality of Jews during the war would be similar at best to the modern Philippines data at 3.72% pa
Putting this in perspective:
European Jewish Population 1939: 9 240 000; the birth rate is non existent.
The table shows the impact of a high mortality rate due to the deprivations of war time conditions and resultant lack of resources. This excludes rampant diseases like typhus which took hold in most of the camps as well as the appalling conditions of weather in the near polar regions around Latvia.
As a result of natural mortality and no births of note, the Jewish population of Europe would have fallen by 1.9 million people from the years 1940 to the end of 1945.
